TAX DEDUCTION
If you make a copy of all the material I provide you and donate
that copy to a legal charitable institution, such as your local
historical society or commission or your town’s library archives, you should
be entitled to deduct from your current year’s federal taxes the entire
cost I bill you, plus the cost of the photocopies you make, plus
the cost of the mileage you expend driving to and from your house to have the
copies made, and to deliver them to the destination, etc. If you have any
reservations about this, please consult a tax professional.
This is a one time-deduction: you may donate a copy of my material to as
many institutions as you wish ( and I do encourage that), but can use the
deduction only once.
